how to use the gas oven
USING THE OVEN FOR THE FIRST TIME
It is advised to follow these instructions:
– Furnish the interior of the oven by placing the wire racks as described at chapter
“Cleaning and maintenance”.
– Insert shelves and tray.
– Turn the oven on to the maximum temperature
8 to eliminate possible traces of
grease from the oven burner. The same operation should be followed for broil
burner.
– Switch off the electrical supply, let the oven cool down, then clean the interior of
the oven with cloth soaked in water and detergent (neutral) then dry carefully.
Attention: the range becomes
very hot during operation.
Attention: the oven door becomes
very hot during operation.
Keep children away.
WARNING:
The door is hot, use the handle.
GENERAL FEATURES
The gas oven is provided with:
a) Oven burner, mounted on the lower part of the oven (13000 BTU/hr).
b) Broil burner, mounted on the upper part of the oven (8500 BTU/hr).
c) Fan motor which can be used in combination with the oven burner or separately
(without heating). It is not possible to use the fan motor in combination with
the broil burner: a safety device switches off the fan motor when the gas
oven/broil control knob is turned on broil position.
d) Light that illuminates the oven to enable visually controlling the food that is
cooking.
N.B. When the range is not being
used, set the gas knobs to their
OFF positions and also close the
gas shut-off valve placed on the
main gas supply line.
VERY IMPORTANT
The oven/broil shall be used always
with the oven door closed.
OPERATING PRINCIPLES
Heating and cooking are obtained in the following ways:
a. by normal convection
The heat is produced by the oven burner.
c. by forced convection
The heat produced by the oven burner is distributed throughout the oven by
the fan. The hot air envelops the food in the oven, provoking a complete and
rapid cooking.
It is possible to cook several dishes simultaneously.
d. by radiation
The heat is irradiated by the infra red broil burner.
f. by ventilation (this is not a cooking function)
The food is defrosted by using the fan only without oven burner.
